The following is an extract from a press release late last week from TheGenealogist, directories suggested as a 1921 census substitute.

TheGenealogist just released a new circa 1921 resource, covering 23 counties, with over one million records. These form part of the Trade, Residential & Telephone record sets on TheGenealogist covering a period currently not served by a census. The fully transcribed, searchable records released today will allow researchers to:●search on forename, surname and profession●search by street, town and county●look for a business name●discover your ancestors’ addresses ●find professions listed .

These 1921 directories cover the North, South, East and the West of England, the Channel Islands and as far up the country as Aberdeen.
